As a School Psychologist, I work with children, adolescents and their families to address educational needs including giftedness, school readiness, learning difficulties, ADHD concerns and study skills. I address socio-emotional concerns that can be related to educational success and satisfaction such as self-confidence, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, aggression, and/or anger control. I promote a collaborative atmosphere between myself and the families and children with whom I work. I also believe in the importance of planning for success in all environments in which the children function.

My associate is a teacher who provides academic support and enrichment. She fosters children's ability to think creatively and collaboratively while solving real-life problems. She offers tutoring, enrichment, study skill and test prep.

I am a Licensed Addiction Counselor with 25 years of experience. I was trained and specialize in relapse prevention. I work on those beliefs and emotions that block a your recovery. I am also a certified hypnotherapist and Neuro-linguistic programmer. My focus is on building up your natural resources to stay sober. I also work with process addictions such as sex, gambling and porn. I use hypnosis and bilateral stimulation to help build up a your resources to self-nurture and protect you from the ravages of guilt, shame anxiety and self-limiting beliefs.

I emphasize that addiction is a pathological relationship with a mind altering substance or process. The struggle to leave the addiction is as emotional as getting a divorce. I can help you get up the courage to leave the drug. I then can coach you to stay sober.
